God's Amazing Enterprises: A Story of Christianity in Africa - Paperback

by Sondra Hansen (Author)

Set in Africa with footholds in archaic Ethiopia and once resplendent Ethiopia, this compelling story describes WHY Christianity is exploding in Africa and below the equator. The book details staggering predictions for religion in Africa and the entire world. Not only are the spiritually aware finding Him, but He is rallying the skeptical and lost with visions and dreams and a dedicated missionary force that attest to the reality of modern-day revelation and a loving God who wants His children home. Seen through the eyes of a reluctant lady missionary, this is a humorous story of Sondra who initially rejects a calling to serve in Africa with her husband, incorrectly describing the continent as "backwards, with endless desert, hyenas lying dead in mud holes and Zulus that are still angry" and declares she is not going. Akin to Jonah who landed in the whale's belly or the struggling archetypal hero, the recalcitrant missionary ultimately discovers the amazing and enterprising ways that the Lord spreads his Restored Gospel and what part she plays in it.
